This week’s special: Filbert Street.

In a tribute to the country to which we owe the cultivation of coffee, we blend our Ethiopia Sidamo, roasted two ways: medium & Viennese. This blend provides a well balanced, chocolatey, and creamy cup that is sure to satisfy coffee cravings. Filbert Street refers to the street just outside of our location at the Reading Terminal Market where this blend was developed.

This week’s special: Sulawesi Toraja Sapan Minanga

This small farm-produced brew is extra special because these beans have never touched the ground! Wet-hulled coffee processing is unique to Indonesia, contributing to this blend’s distinct flavor profile with notes of dark chocolate, cedar and vanilla.

Come grab it before it’s gone! Available both in stores and online.

This weeks special: Independence Blend 🇺🇸

Our annual Independence Blend combines viennese roast Sumatra with medium roast Brazil and Ethiopia to create a rich, complex blend. The Sumatra gives body and a syrupy profile while the Ethiopia gives fruity and spicy flourishes. We finish it with a touch of French roast Colombia to create a perfect blend. Enjoy it hot or iced!

Get it online or visit our shop in Old City and The Reading Terminal Market!
